Investigation summary: from the photos provided, two fm was observed.From the returned samples, the bigger fm was observed as it was placed on the glass plate.However, we could not observe the smaller fm shown in photo 4.The fm placed on the glass plate was sent for ftir and observed to be polypropylene.A review of the device history record revealed no irregularities during the manufacture of the reported lot #.Investigation conclusion: from the returned sample, the fm was observed to be polypropylene.Upon investigation, at the shield removal station, there may be rubbing at the hub with the shield removal plate which contributes to the probable cause of fm.The fm may have stick to the cannula.The shield removal plate was mill down which help to raise the position of the shield removal plate and have more gap between the hub to reduce rubbing.This action has been completed on (b)(6) 2018.The production batch was produced on feb-2017 which is prior to the implementation of the corrective action.
